By age 12, Gavin Svenson had a strong interest in insects. He couldn’t get enough of digging
for them, watching them, and collecting them. He remembers that his parents patiently indulged
(纵容) his passion for insects even as he stored them in the fridge of their home.
Around that age, Svenson saw an interview with an insectologist on TV and thought,“Whoa!
You can do this as a job?” Clearly, yes, which explains how he ended up as the curator (馆长) at
the Cleveland Museum of Natural History.
Deep interests that present at an early age often stay with us throughout life, says Susan
Newman, a social psychologist.
So how do you help your teenager find their passion? Parents can be patient and supportive
without overdoing it. Svenson feels his parents found the night balance. “My parents were super
supportive, but it was mostly me driving it,” says Svenson. Though his parents had some worries
about his narrow choice of a career path, they never tried to force him to change it.
Teens are likely to try lots of new activities and may drop them almost as quickly as they pick
them up. So how can parents know when it’s a true passion and when not? Newman describes a
passion as “an interest or activity that you can’t get enough of; it keeps you coming back for
more.” Newman says, “As a parent, you’ll notice that you can’t get their attention because they are
totally absorbed.”
But what if the passion that’s absorbing your child is not the one you would have picked for
them? “Parents have to realize that their children are separate human beings with interests, likes,
and dislikes hat can be very different from their own,” says Newman. “You have to let your teen
take the lead in what interests them.”
Now a parent himself, Svenson concurs. “Never lower your kids’ interests. Kids are smart,
and they have a great ability to form their own opinion.”
4. Why did Svenson store insects in the fridge of his home?
A. To cook them. B. To study them.
C. To follow an expert’s advice. D. To play a joke on his parents.
5. What does Svenson think of his parents?
A. They are on his side.
B. They are single-minded.
C. They should not change his life.
D. They should not worry about him.
6. What advice might Newman give parents?
A. To let their kids find their own interest.
B. To develop the same interest as their kids.
C. To pick a long term interest for their kids.
D. To help their kids stick with their interest.
7. What might the underlined word “concurs” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Feels surprised. B. Refuses all help.
C. Makes promises. D. Expresses agreement.

When I first picked up Michelle Zauner’s memoir “Crying in H Mart,” I was attracted by the
familiar name of the local Korean market 10 minutes away from my house. Looking through its
pages was no different from looking through an old photo album, reminding me of my old
memories. And I wanted to look at each and every photo, up close.
Despite being a struggling artist making up for lost time with a sick mother, Zauner somehow
made her unique experiences related to her audience. One of the factors that helped make this
possible was food. Every food and every aspect of Korean culture she described seemed so
familiar to me, as I’m a Korean American. Not only this, we have similar experiences, and have
common feelings of being torn apart by two cultures that seem to refuse to accept us just for being
